How to watch the 2014 Cyclocross World Championships LIVE!

The UCI is streaming it live on their youtube channel, with English commentary by Ant McCrossan – and if you miss it, the stream will turn into the archive as soon as the race is done.

The race will start at 15:00 European time (CET), which works out at 2pm UK; 9am USA EST and 1am Sunday morning Australian AEDT. If you click through to that link, it gives you a countdown to the feed starting, to help work it out in yourtimezone. But there are more options!

Some countries will have it live on tv and the tv stream – Sporza in Belgium, for example, will start at 14:40 CET for the women’s race and will also show the junior, u23 and elite men live, and in the Netherlands, NOS Sport will be showing the women’s and men’s races from 14:50 each day, with commentary from Dutch cyclocross star Sanne van Paassen, who’s not racing this year due to medical issues. You can find the UCI’s tv guide for other countries here. USA people, you’ll notice that the UCI stream is go-restricted because Universal has the rights, and according to the guide might not show it live (if you’re a subscriber, check your schedule to confirm) – but you can use something like Hola (recommended by twitterfolk!) or Tunnelbear added to your browser, and set to the UK to see the UCI feed, and, as always, we all can find streams in the threeusualplaces.

UPDATE! Live race information and video clips on Sporza’s Match Center for the women’s race – and there’s a live thread on Podium Café where you can talk (or lurk!) through the race with us. We’re very friendly, so if you’ve never watched CX, or talked there, we’d love to have you. And here’s what the course is like from an on-bike perspective:

If you want to follow the cyclocross women as they prepare for Worlds, I have a twitter list, which I’ll update to the startlist, and I’ll add whatever twitter hashtag is being used on the day – and as always you can ask me any questions, or share information for me to update here, in the comments or on twitter, where I’m @_pigeons_.

Big thanks to ednl, geert and Lyne at Podium Insight for your help finding information, I always appreciate it
